    Poll: You have to fist fight the last game character you played as, how does it go?

    I've been playing Stellaris, so I guess I have to fight the entire stellar nation of the Ixian Technocracy. I don't think I could get past the genetically modified leader let alone 5 governors, 4 scientists, 4 fleet admirals, and 2 generals. Not including the 74 populated planets, 115...

    CPU consideration: i5 6600 vs i7 6700

    If money were truly no issue, you would be getting a GTX 1080 instead of a 1070. As everyone else said if you are mostly going to using this computer to game, get the i5.

    Blizzard Removes "Avoid this Player" Option from Overwatch

    I've still got the "Avoid this Game" option though, heh heh heh. But seriously, sounds like they didn't need to remove it just tweak it; especially since they use matchmaking. Avoid lists shouldn't be treated like bans, but preference. If matchmaking determines that all suitable games for you...

    Star Trek - Bridge Crew VR Game Announced

    I came here to mention this. But, you are telling me that instead of paying $40, 3 of my friends and I could instead build monster VR gaming PC's and get $500 VR headsets and then each buy this game instead? WHAT A DEAL! Edit: Oh man, with this VR headset I can SEE my friends at their...

    Where can I find the PC Specs for Overwatch? Also PC building in general; how off am I?

    Specs for Overwatch: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/requirements/overwatch/12955 GPU and CPU are your really big picks, RAM is RAM these days you won't really notice a difference between the different speeds even between DDR3 and DDR4 except in specific situations (that you won't...

    Most beautiful spaceships in fiction

    The big destroyer makes sense to me, hell, it's both rectangular and rotating. The smaller ships are odd though, why are their engines out on those arms so far away from the cockpit? Unless I've got the scale all wrong I don't think those wings could store much in the way of cargo.

    Overwatch Game Director Says Tick Rate Complaints Due to a "General Misunderstanding"

    Surely the client update rate is how many times per second the server SENDS data to the client, not whether or not the client accepts it. Furthermore, I'm with Mr. Kaplan all the way on this: Most multiplayer games use a tick rate that is lower than the screen refresh. Also, some one...

    Most beautiful spaceships in fiction

    I know rule of cool usually takes effect for fictional spacecraft, but I have a problem with believing any ship that was designed solely for space flight would look like anything other than a big rectangle - or have those large rotating rings to produce an effect similar to that of gravity...

    Help me buy a PC.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't buy a pre-built computer. You'll throw away a third of your budget that way, on outdated or cheap parts, and a flashy case. Speaking as some one who went from never building a PC before, to building multiple computers, and doing repairs for friends; you can build...

    Level Up Your Sound with a Free Gaming Headset from V-Moda

    I need a new set of headphones and I am an eligible person that could participate in this- but I will not because this stuff just seems scummy. Follow/Share on Facebook and Twitter? What even are these websites? I've never heard of them, and I certainly don't have accounts with them to...

    Star Citizen's First Person Shooter Module Revealed at PAX Aus

    Tsk tsk, I've been a backer since the project was at $6,000. Edit: Why am I being targeted here? All i did was offer some speculation - it was neither for nor against the game. To clarify my position; I wholeheartedly support this game and hope it does well, but it is the prize pony...

    3D Realms Returns After Five-Year Absence

    I was just playing Nukem2 the other day on dosBox, and a lot of these other titles I played on shareware. But I'm confused as well as some others here; aren't a lot of these titles sold to other companies? How can they sell them? Nvm.
